Hot to backup JIRA data from linux console

Question

Hi community, as you know in System > Backup System there is an option "backup Jira data" in the UI that will send backup file to: /var/atlassian/application-data/jira/export.

Do you know which script is executed so I can run it manually from linux console instead of running this from UI and wait in that screen until backup is completed?
